In case you were interested, Seoul’s Lotte World is the largest indoor amusement park on earth. You can literally see it from space, and it’s one of the most popular tourist attractions in Korea. What, didn’t you know?

Well, you’d be forgiven for thinking you’d been there before. Its centerpiece? A castle. Its slogan is “A world of magic, fantasy and adventure.” Its logo? Hm, looks a little like Walt Disney Pictures, circa the 1990’s.

I wanted to bathe in the tawdry infringement. But, alas. It’s been virtually unreported in the U.S. press, but the amusement park, patronized by millions, was summarily shut down in January following a ghastly series of accidents. You see, Koreans having theme park safety standards somewhat akin to their intellectual property standards, there’s been trouble.

First, a guy fell to his death from a roller coaster. Then, in a botched PR move, the park offered free admission for a day and dozens of people were nearly crushed to death in the stampede. Then a 10-year-old boy was smashed in the head by a falling ceiling tile. Finally, after the police got involved, the roof was declared in danger of collapse, power cables were found to be dangerously exposed, and the whole place was padlocked until July at least. Mark the calendars and bring the kids! And maybe some lawyers — personal injury or copyright. Or both.
